Also called Loadless training in Russia.
According to Verkhoshansky, it's just as good as lifting, but not exactly the same (strength proportion of agonists and antagonists differs a bit).

And by the way: If you don't know who Yuri Verkhoshansky is - he is the guy who invented plyometrics and also introduced lifting to all sports.
You should really know his name.

Obviously it works. Charles Atlas was strong enough to rip a phone book in half.
The reason why lifting is more popular is because it's easier to track progress.

Nothing about ripping a phone book in half involves strength. And he looks like shit in OPs pic.

Obvious shitposting. 99.9 percent of people can't rip a phone book in half. Hell, 99.9 percent of people who lift can't do that.
> And he looks like shit
He looks better than 99.9 percent of the population. 17 inch arms, 47 inch chest, visible abs in spite of being 15% bodyfat. That's better that majority of people including people who lift. Stop letting fake natties warp your standards.
So i can stand in my doorframe and do "OHP" with it and get gains?
